Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butter
- 20 ounces mini marshmallows
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
Add-ins
- 20 Double Stuf Oreo Cookies (broken into small pieces)
Instructions
- Melt Butter and Marshmallows: Heat the butter in a large saucepan over low heat until fully melted to ensure an even melt without burning. Then add all but 1 cup of the mini marshmallows, stirring constantly over low heat until the marshmallows are completely melted and smooth.
- Add Vanilla Extract: Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the teaspoon of vanilla extract to add a fragrant sweetness that enhances the overall flavor of the treats.
- Combine Cereal: Gently fold in the 6 cups of Rice Krispies cereal, making sure each piece is well coated with the marshmallow mixture for an even texture.
- Mix in Oreos and Remaining Marshmallows: Stir in the broken Oreo cookie pieces along with the remaining 1 cup of mini marshmallows for added chewy texture and the iconic Oreo flavor distributed throughout the mixture.
- Press into Pan and Cool: Transfer the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Press down firmly and evenly to compact the treats. Allow them to cool completely at room temperature for about 1 hour to set properly before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Use fresh mini marshmallows for the best melting results.
- Greasing the pan helps prevent sticking and makes removal easier.
- Breaking Oreos into small pieces ensures they’re evenly distributed without creating large hard chunks.
- Store treats in an airtight container to maintain freshness and chewiness.
- For a fun variation, try mixing in white chocolate chips or peanut butter chips.
